What we love about Estancia El Colibri
- At this 170-hectare Relais & Chateaux property, guests can enjoy a combination of luxury, the outdoors, and views of the Sierra de Cordoba mountains.
- Explore on foot, mountain bike, or horseback with a gaucho. Other activities include bird watching, dove shooting, and farm tours.
- Besides the many activities, visitors can unwind by the pool, visit the spa, or stroll around the farm. You can also watch and play polo.
- Cordoba is easily reached by car, and yet the hotel feels a world away from city life. Other nearby day trips include the Jesuit Ruins and local doma (rodeo).
- All rooms are bright and spacious. The three suites, two of which boast separate living rooms, provide private terraces and fireplaces. Extra beds can also be added where necessary.
- Many ingredients for the on-site restaurant are sourced from the estancia’s own vegetable garden or fruit trees. Lunch can be prepared in front of your eyes, and don’t miss the traditional Argentine barbeque, Asado, rated the nation’s best by Lugares magazine.
Days at Estancia Colibri can be spent however you please.
Mornings are the best time to get out and explore the countryside in style, heading into the estate on horseback or mountain bike with your gaucho guide. Later, enjoy a picnic lunch on the banks of the Santa Catalina River, then rest up by the pool for the afternoon and enjoy the views of the Sierra de Cordoba in the distance.
Spend the evening sampling Argentine meats by the open fire and watching sunset behind the pampas.
From Cordoba airport, it’s a straightforward 45-minute drive to the hotel.
Private transportation can be arranged on request.
